Chapter 2492 Lan Jisu, the Waterloo of the Internet Cafe Industry

That was a tragedy that happened in 2002!

In 2002, when the Internet cafe industry was booming and developing rapidly, a sudden fire stopped the expansion of the Internet cafe industry.

On June 16 of that year, at about 2:40 in the morning, a fire suddenly broke out in an Internet cafe located on Xueyuan Road in the "Miding" District of Beijing.

The fire eventually swallowed up twenty-five young lives, many of them children, fifteen of whom were students alone, and twelve others who suffered varying degrees of minor or serious injuries!

This fire is also known as the fire that caused the most serious casualties and the worst impact since the Nuts in Beijing.ωωw..net

The Internet cafe where the fire broke out was called "Lanjisu". It was also a black Internet cafe hidden in a residential area at that time!

Because of this fire, Internet cafes have become the target of public criticism across society.

They didn't care whether the Internet cafe was a formal one or a black Internet cafe. Anyway, in the hearts of the people at that time and in the face of overwhelming public opinion, Internet cafes were a bad thing.

Internet cafes and game arcades are of the same breed, poisoning young people. Only people with no buttholes to give birth to children do this business!

The boss of Lan Jisu also knew that he was running a black Internet cafe, so he was always secretive when he was doing business, because he was worried about inspections from the industrial and commercial, cultural, fire and other departments.

Every night when the boss leaves, he locks the outside door and locks in those who stay online all night, so that no one will find him.

The lock on June 16th was immediately locked, and the children who were surfing the Internet inside were the only way out.

What is even more outrageous is that the fire was caused by man-made arson.

One of the arsonists was named Zhang Hao, who was thirteen years old and dropped out of the first grade of the High School Affiliated to the Mining Institute. The other was named Liu Yifan, a student of the Petroleum High School.

The two people who caused such a heavy casualty accident were supposed to be fired for half an hour. However, because of their age, they were not punished as they should have been.

Zhang Hao, because he was under fourteen years old, was exempted from criminal responsibility. Liu Yifan, who was a minor at the time of the murder, was exempted from the death penalty and was only sentenced to life imprisonment. Calculating the time, he would have been released from prison long ago.

Even if Liu Yifan comes out, he is only about thirty years old. Considering his family's conditions, he will not miss anything in the rest of his life and will still live a more prosperous life than most ordinary people.

It's just a pity that dozens of lives were wasted!

I really want to ask here, who does the Minors Protection Law protect? Does this law protect good children or bad children?

The reason why the two of them set the fire is unbelievable.

Just because the two of them went to the Blue Speed ​​Internet Cafe to surf the Internet, they didn't have enough money and still wanted to play. As a result, the administrator of the Internet Cafe said something to them, so they held a grudge.

In order to retaliate against the Internet cafe, they filled more than a liter of gasoline in a Lebi bottle and ignited the carpet at the entrance of the Internet cafe, ultimately causing this tragic incident of casualties.

In the past 20 years, the arguments that games are electronic drugs, that the Internet teaches bad things to children, and that juvenile delinquency is a crime have begun to gain traction.

These keywords are hammered hard one by one. Most of them don’t even know what the Internet is. This is a shock to the general public. Especially those with children at home!

Therefore, after the fire that broke out in Lanjisu, the rectification, inspection and supervision of Internet cafes were quickly spread across the country.

Beijing announced that all Internet cafes would be closed for rectification, and all parts of the country quickly followed suit. Since then, not one new Internet cafe has been added across the country, and the relevant departments did not even need to review it, and just refused to approve it!

It’s not that they won’t approve it. The relevant departments require the integration of Internet cafes. They still allow it for those large-scale Internet cafes that operate nationwide chains, but they will no longer approve those independent Internet cafes!

At the same time, existing legal Internet cafes must also strictly implement mandatory regulations prohibiting entry of minors, prohibiting smoking, and complying with fire protection standards.

Public security, fire protection, cultural and other departments will patrol and inspect Internet cafes at any time and from time to time. Even the local street office will organize specialized personnel to inspect Internet cafes.

For a time, the supervision of Internet cafes was unprecedentedly strict.

Gone are the days when you could just buy three or five second-hand computers, run a network cable, and open an Internet cafe.

Internet cafes have thus ended their era of huge profits, and the Blue Speed ​​incident has also become the Waterloo of the Internet cafe industry.

Of course, without the wild growth of huge profits, it does not mean that Internet cafes will no longer make money. Until the popularization of smartphones and mobile Internet, Internet cafes were still a profitable business.

But at that time, Internet cafes had become "game arcades", all supported by games!

But at this time, it is a good time to enter this industry and reap a full wave of dividends.

Even though Tang Weidong was frothing at the mouth, Cai Wu listened with only half-understanding. With his stupid head, talking about technology and the Internet to him was purely redundant.

He can't even recognize all the words, so you still expect him to understand what the Internet is?

However, he also has a good point, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, he just needs to follow Tang Weidong's "instructions". Isn't this how he has been going for so many years?

It is precisely because of listening to Tang Weidong that he has achieved what he has achieved now. If he continues to do what he did before this time, why should he worry about it?

Therefore, after Tang Weidong finished speaking, he immediately said: "Okay, Brother Dong, it's just about spending money to open a store. I'm good at this."

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter immediately when I get back. I will definitely do it properly. We will strive to open Naha Internet cafes across the country in the shortest possible time. We must make it the largest and only one in the country."

!”

Tang Weidong didn't have the slightest worry about whether Cai Wu could do what he said. He thought the same as Cai Wu, which was nothing more than throwing money.

A national chain may sound bluffing, but for "capital", as long as you are willing to spend money, is it still a big deal?

Regardless of whether it is Tang Weidong or Cai Wu, the only thing that is poor now is money. The funds to open an Internet cafe are not easy for them.

Furthermore, Internet cafes now only need to be opened in key, larger cities. There is no need to engage in "Internet cafes going to the countryside". Even if you do it, I guess the consumption power of most places will not be able to keep up.

superior!

Therefore, the capital invested in the early stage does not need to be "too big" - (compared to the scale of assets controlled by Cai Wu). After the Internet cafe has made profits, it can then use the money earned to continue to snowball and open stores.

Until it covers most cities across the country.

Anyway, Tang Weidong knows where the node is. When the Internet cafe is about to go downhill, even if he transfers the Internet cafe procedures in his hand, he can still make a fortune.

In the future, Internet cafe procedures will be considered a "scarce resource" and are still very valuable!

This business is profitable no matter how you calculate it, at least you don’t have to worry about losing money.

After Tang Weidong thought for a while, he continued to tell him: "When opening an Internet cafe, location selection is very important. At this time, the consumption of Internet cafes is still unaffordable for most ordinary people. Therefore, you have to try to find those target groups, and
Chapter completed!
